TOP PICK OF THE WEEK: Seemore Gourmet Sausage

It’s a new year, and a new look at sausage.

Seemore Meats & Veggies is a Brooklyn-based enterprise founded by a fourth-generation butcher and named for her grandfather, Seymour, who taught her how to make sausages.

It has an original point-of-view, with a creative lineup of flavorful vegetable-infused sausages.

Yes, there are other companies that sell humanely raised, pastured, grass-fed, meat.

Yes, there are vegetarian sausages.

But Seemore’s Cara Nicoletti decided to make a sustainable sausage with grass-fed meat while enabling meat lovers to consume less meat—another goal of conscientious consumers.

Cara’s solution: veggie-forward sausages.
 
 
SEEMORE’S APPROACH TO SAUSAGES

Seemore’s sausage links are packed with pork or chicken but also with fresh vegetables. The result:

  • Each link has 10g of protein from the meat.
  • Veggies contribute additional nutrition, such as fiber, calcium and vitamin C.
  • It’s a more sustainable way to eat meat, with up to 60% less meat than a conventional sausage.
  • Most carnivores won’t notice that there is less meat—although the beet version, a dazzling magenta color (photos #1 and #4), may raise questions.
  • The sausages are made with premium ingredients and sustainable practices: GAP Certified meat, no artificial ingredients, no nitrates or phosphates.
  • The line is gluten-free.
  •  
    We can attest that the sausages are very meaty. They are texturally and taste-wise like an all-meat sausage, but maybe even better: rich and savory, but also bright with that certain something extra.

    Yes, the vegetables are a bonus, adding nuance and color along with subtle flavor. The Bubbe’s Chicken Soup variety really does taste like chicken soup!

    You don’t have to be a gourmet to love them; but if you are a gourmet, consider the Seemore line as “gourmet” sausage.

    The flavor names are fun, too:

  • Broccoli Melt: pork, broccolini, Monterey Jack, and pepperoncini
  • Bubbe’s Chicken Soup: chicken, herbs, carrots and celery
  • La Dolce Beet-A: pork, beets, garlic and fennel
  • Loaded Baked Potato: pork, potatoes, Cheddar, uncured bacon bits and chives

    COOKING TIP: Note that for more casual cooking, the sausages cook up best when heated either in a pan or on a grill. The cooking time for either method should be between 3-6 minutes.

    Don’t microwave the sausages: It hardens the sausage casing.
